OFFICIAL: Lucas Vazquez extends Real Madrid contract

On Thursday morning, Real Madrid confirmed the renewal of Lucas Vazquez's contract for another season. The home-grown player has taken on a secondary role for many seasons now and has even dared to convert from winger to full-back when his coaching staff needed him to. Now, he has earned another year of continuity after winning the Champions League. He signs until 30th June 2025.

In this way, the ‘Merengues’ board continue the wave of extensions that began with that of Luka Modric. On the other hand, Nacho Fernandez, who had the approval of Florentino Perez's leadership to stay, opted for a change of scenery and headed for Saudi Arabia, where he will have a more important profile and, in turn, will receive a salary in line with his status to retire with financial security.

The protagonist of this news item only left the Santiago Bernabeu once in his career, when he spent the 2014-15 campaign at Espanyol. On his return, he suffered an understandable loss of playing time considering the quality that has always been part of the ‘Merengues’ squad. In fact, this season, one of the attractions of him remaining is to share space with a host of stars enhanced by Kylian Mbappe and Endrick.

"Real Madrid CF and Lucas Vazquez have agreed to extend the contract of our player, who remains linked to the club until 30th June 2025. Lucas Vázquez has played 349 games for our team, in which he has scored 36 goals, and is an international with Spain, for whom he has played nine games," reads the text published by Real Madrid.
